Well in my life it is. As you all know, I’m mainly a digital photographer. It’s been my tool since I started professionally as a photographer. I love digital for the ability to just shoot, shoot, shoot! and to instantly see what you are shooting. Not to mention that you don’t need to change film depending on the speed that you need or to decide if you want to shoot black and white or color photos. So many excellent things can be said about digital and not to many negatives.
Film for me though, has always been about a certain look. There’s just this unexplained thing about film, that’s there and can’t be replicated digitally. I know that first hand, because I’ve tried countless times with no success. So I said, why try to replicate it, when I can just shoot film! So I’ve been on a mad hunt lately picking up film camera bodies that looked semi familiar to me, from the photographers that used them at the weddings I’ve attended as a teenager.
I’m not saying that I am going to totally switch to film or that digital is all that I use, truth be told is that I love both. And hopefully sooner than later, film and digital in my professional life, will meet at the crossroads of photo making, so stay tuned!
I know most of you have seen my updates on Twitter or Facebook, but here’s a recent photo of my film family. I like to keep it old school!


Here are some more cheesy smiles that I really adore.
Aren’t black and white photos so timeless?
This was the actual dorm room that Chendal lived at while on campus. Geoffrey later confessed to me that he used to stalk her, but see, stalking paid off!

A simple portrait
Some more of that beautiful light! These two made my job easy!
This was my favorite photo of Chendal. Geoffrey calls her the posing / photo queen!
A quick change and we were off running!


There was no lifeguard on duty, so we took advantage!
Geoffrey waited all shoot, just to carry Chendal out to the water. He didn’t get all the way in, but just knee deep.


Here’s
Aimee and
For some reason this photo was a total accident. I was about to put my camera down and stop shooting, but for a split second, Aimee looked over at me and I was quick enough to take this photo. I’m glad I did.





This wasn’t part of the planned shoot, Beth was just cold really.
